Due to its exceptional electronic and thermal properties, graphene is a key material for bolometry, calorimetry, and photon detection. However, despite graphene's relatively simple electronic structure, the physical processes responsible…

Despite many of the applications of graphene rely on its uneven stiffness and high thermal conductivity, the mechanical properties of graphene, and in general of all 2D materials, are still elusive. The harmonic theory predicts a quadratic…

Recently, a new 2D carbon allotrope called Irida-Graphene (Irida-G) was proposed. Irida-G consists of a flat sheet topologically arranged into 3-6-8 carbon rings exhibiting metallic and non-magnetic properties. In this study, we…

Thermal conductivity measurements over variable lengths on nanostructures such as nanowires provide important information about the mean free paths (MFPs) of the phonons responsible for heat conduction. However, nearly all of these…

Step junctions are often present in layered materials, i.e. where single-layer regions meet multi-layer regions, yet their effect on thermal transport is not understood to date. Here, we measure heat flow across graphene junctions (GJs)…

Despite the ubiquity of applications of heat transport across nanoscale interfaces, including integrated circuits, thermoelectrics, and nanotheranostics, an accurate description of phonon transport in these systems remains elusive. Here we…

Hotspot is a ubiquitous phenomenon in microdevices/chips. In homogeneous nanoscale graphene disk with a hotspot, a graded thermal conductivity is observed previously even when the system size is fixed. However, the underlying physical…

The electronic and vibrational properties of 2D materials are dramatically altered by the formation of a moir\'e superlattice. The lowest-energy phonon modes of the superlattice are two acoustic branches (called phasons) that describe the…

Graphene revealed a number of unique properties beneficial for electronics, including exceptionally high electron mobility and widely tunable Fermi level. However, graphene does not have an electron energy band gap, which presents a serious…

In this work, we report on hot carrier diffusion in graphene across large enough length scales that the carriers are not thermalized across the crystal. The carriers are injected into graphene at one site and their thermal transport is…

We investigate the phonon thermal conductance of graphene regarding the graphene sheet as the large-width limit of graphene strips in the ballistic limit. We find that the thermal conductance depends weakly on the direction angle $\theta$…

This is a theoretical study of electron transport in gated bilayer graphene - a novel semiconducting material with a tunable band gap. It is shown that the which-layer pseudospin coherence enhances the subgap conductivity and facilitates…

Increased power density in modern microelectronics has led to thermal management challenges which can cause degradation in performance and reliability. In many high-power electronic devices, the power consumption and heat removal are…

We combine density-functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function method to study the thermal conductance of graphene nanoribbons with armchair and zigzag edges. Zigzag ribbons have higher thermal conductance than armchair…

In recent years, phonon electron carrier dragging has emerged as an innovative approach for modulating energy transfer in low dimensional systems. In this Letter, we explore the fundamental mechanisms of electron-phonon coupling and the…

In the hydrodynamic regime, phonons drift with a nonzero collective velocity under a temperature gradient, reminiscent of viscous gas and fluid flow. The study of hydrodynamic phonon transport has spanned over half a century but has been…

A fundamental understanding of phonon transport in stanene is crucial to predict the thermal performance in potential stanene-based devices. By combining first-principle calculation and phonon Boltzmann transport equation, we obtain the…

Traditional theories of interfacial heat transfer by atomic vibrations, also known as phonons, do not explain how vibrational mode interactions contribute to interface conductance. Traditional methods also use the concept of phonons as…

A dramatic difference between the vertical thermal conductance response of homogeneous and heterogeneous graphene/h-BN interfaces to external mechanical perturbations, is predicted. Homogeneous graphene and h-BN interfaces exhibit strong…

Thermal transport in nanoribbon based nanostructures is critical to advancing its applications. Wave effects of phonons can give rise to controllability of heat conduction in nanostructures beyond that by particle scattering. In this paper,…
